Warning - Contains scenes that some may find distressing
A Grimsby GP doctor failed to properly manage and keep records of NHS pension funds, a tribunal has found.Dr Reeta Singh failed to ensure Ashwood Surgery in Grimsby had adequate systems in place for correct staff contributions to be paid to NHS Pensions, according to the tribunal.
At the time, Dr Singh was working as a general practitioner at Ashwood Surgery, which she became the sole Personal Medical Services contract holder for in 2011. This surgery is found inside the Weelsby View Health Centre on Ladysmith Road. Dr Singh was made aware of a problem with pension contributions in summer 2012. For the next three years, contributions were at times not being paid within specific time periods, or were being underpaid.
Eventually, in 2019 it was agreed that £24,723.40 was owed in employer and employee contributions. Dr Singh has taken responsibility for the deficit by agreeing to pay it from her own pension fund. As well as not ensuring adequate systems were in place, other allegations of misconduct the tribunal found proven, included:
